Horse Racing Tips & Best Bets – Friday 14th August, 2020

Friday will see plenty of quality thoroughbred racing across the country with our focus being on the meeting at Townsville in Queensland. Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Friday 14th August, 2020.

Townsville – Race 4 1:17PM AEST

No. 5 I Did It Again – Bet Now: $1.90

I Did It Again is deserving of his status as a short-priced favourite for this contest.

There is no doubt that he is racing in career best form and on his best he does have a genuine class edge over the rest of this field.

I am confident that he has the quality to overcome and wide barrier draw and get the job done.

Townsville – Race 5 1:57PM AEST

EACH WAY: No. 6 Hit Snooze – Bet Now: $51.00

Hit Snooze is a much better chance in the Townsville Guineas than his current odds of $51 suggests.

He is a better galloper than his past two race starts suggest and this really isn’t the strongest edition of the Townsville Guineas.

He will go to the front in the early stages of this contest and give his rivals something to catch.

Townsville – Race 9 4:27PM AEST

BEST BET: No. 3 Best Hoffa – Bet Now: $3.50

Best Hoffa is the horse to beat in the Townsville Cup.

He could hardly have been more impressive when he bolted in to win the Mackay Cup and a repeat of that effort would make him very tough to beat.

The wide barrier draw isn’t ideal, but he does have early speed and he can be ridden aggressively in the early stages of this race.

Townsville – Race 10 5:10PM AEST

No. 1 Monsieur Gustave – Bet Now: $7.50

Monsieur Gustave is the class horse in the Townsville Cleveland Bay and he can overcome a big weight to return to winning form.

It has been a while since he recorded a race win and the wide barrier draw isn’t ideal, but his two runs this campaign have been excellent and he is well-placed to peak third-up.

$9.50 is well and truly over the odds in what is a very open race.
